He does have a damage skill, which is a mixed bag, but there's basically one (right) way to play this guy, which is the only reason I ever don't bring him ('cause I have ADD, OCD, and a short attention span and I like some flippin' variety, dangit).

"Enemies take 20% extra damage from skills they are vulnerable to per arcade level" - Going to +100% or basically dealing 300% damage with specific skills against specific monsters, a 50% increase in efficiency is not bad at all and can easily be used in some specific battles where you have difficulties. The devs did us the favor of letting us have him even if we don't get past the Great Paywall. Thing is, both Fireball and Lightning are perfectly serviceable even against single targets, so if you're looking to be hyper efficient you'll likely invest in one of those and your boosting skill.

Make this the heart of your Monk's tactics though, and you'll think the enemy forgot their spiked clubs at home and brought over-cooked spaghetti instead.

If you should go off and do other stuff and come back to this same quest at level 20, you'll still get the same half a level's worth of XP, but now that translates to (totally approximately guessing but you get the point) 10'000XP.

So if you're going for the giant-silverback-gorilla-stomping-through-the-jungle look, pair with Power Lunge and enjoy the agro. "Charms become available as item drops" - This is pretty huge, although clearly not clutch.

Players each have a passive ability and a boost to one or more of each of the 3 attributes (Body, Senses, and Mind). A minor problem is that the target is random, so not much strategy there. "Anything affecting adjacent enemies can affects all enemies (50%/100% probability)" - Some of the group attack skills in this game don't need this, like the row damaging ones and Life Steal and Hail of Arrows, but most of them (and all the best ones) do. Pair this with Ambush though and you'll have 126 damage per hit with that 28 stacking condition.

And just because they aren't efficient doesn't mean they can't be effective, and every once in a while all the stars will align and they will lay waste to their pitiful foes in the (you guessed it) coolest way possible. A Warlock, say, really gets the shellacked end of the stick here, as the best bonus he can hope for is +14 spell damage. Black Arts (Passive) - good (SAKA for Sudden Death), Vanish (Sort of but not really Passive) - good/SAKA. There's nothing else like it in the game. Except of course if you use his next skill as a 1 point concept, as I've been teasing you with. But that's just for the Mage with Lightning. It's why she's so macabre all the time. All you care about is initiative so just equip moccasins/Green Icosahedron as nothing effects Hail damage. Something to consider. If you have a Lightning Mage that bonus is upped to +184 damage if there are 4 enemies to soak up the damage, and there you've really got a good thing going. You need to know what condition you're inflicting so you can line them all up - this skill is almost worse than nothing in that respect. Complete. Second part is: kill a whole bunch of stuff as soon as you encounter it. This means you can use a Paladin spamming Weakness or a Knight or Barbarian (or Thief maybe) complimenting those 5 with their own Stun critical. (The Barbarian, in theory, can kill anything in the game in one turn with one sequence of critical hits.) Another user - will update and re-evaluate the usefulness of furniture and give some information. Max this out and you're healing 80 HP for everyone, every turn. But that ability, that beautiful ability, which lets him ignore the armor penalties on your energy. How this becomes a good thing is when you have a low Initiative player as your Condition delivery system who goes last or close to last out of everyone (including the enemy), thus setting up the whole field with Weakness (that would only get the initial resistance roll here) or Fire (that will get no resistance roll at all) for the next turn, when the Thief will strike first and lay waste to your hapless enemies. With this skill maxed and two turns of using it, your Knight will have around 200-300 Threat (hilarious, right?).

And here's the A-grade primo version of the Ninja, with a similar approach. Conditions and Criticals are not the primary focus here, nor is tweaking the whole thing to get maximum possible carnage; just good solid steady damage and regenerating, ensuring you'll get through everything even if it takes a few more turns than other more offensive teams: Your classic basic fighter, with a skill for bosses, and a skill for groups. And that "1 point ward" build is, of course, the best combo here, but unlike with the bear situation it doesn't make up for a weakness (the lack of bear toughness), so even though this skill is best used with that build, it doesn't change the value (or rating) of Grappling Vines. This is, damage-wise, the same as the Mage's Lightning at 104 damage max.

I don't know what it is, but Druids just have this thing with vines. There's no real tactical benefit here, it just mitigates the least enjoyable aspect of traveling around Paperos.

The Knight has changed that, and while I'm very impressed with him for that, I'm a little miffed he's dethroned the Ninja here. Both the Warlock and Mage max out at 136 in the single damage category, and they all inflict Conditions in their own way so, really, I don't get it. Between the two of them and any other Condition inflicting skills your party has (including the Monk's flaming fist), and with the crazy high Threat, your Monk will get most of the hits and not feel a thing. One tactical element that needs to be mentioned here is that as your team hacks away at the edges of the front row, you'll gain access to the edges of the back row.
